Sydtoosic Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 My wife just bought a 2016 DJCR+... It does not have AHL... Although the dodge site says that it is standard. Does anyone one have a DJCR+ With automatic headlamps... l dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 While the site says that all US DJ models get automatic headlamps (which we know is wrong), the current online brochure says they're optional on the Crossroad and Crossroad +, a component of the Popular Equipment Group. And adding automatic headlights is a function of changing some components and adding a sales code which I believe is not currently possible. Note that all of the promotional material is subject to change. Sydtoosic and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 There are several threads in this section that contain lots of information on the issue. Sydtoosic and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydtoosic Posted March 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 thanx fellas... just find it strange (someone probably posted this) that a 30K car has no AHLs... nor does it have DRLs even though there is an option in settings for DRLs... dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRL's are turned on/off at the factory dependent on the destination of that individual vehicle , if they aren't mandated in your region they didn't set the sales code set. As for AHL that is marketing for you some one decided the CR would come without them.

dhh3 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 If DRLs are still listed as a Sales Code, your Dealer can turn them on for you. Note: they do not come on unless the car is in gear. Sydtoosic and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanTacular Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 I'm in Canada where drl's are mandatory and I sort of hate how they look especially being all dim and how one side turns off when you use a turn signal. I also never use my auto headlights since I like the look of the fog lights on and the main head light off which sort of resembles the look of the higher end cars like Mercedes Benz which uses fogs as Drl's. I'm gonna try and hook up the drl wire to activate a relay which will turn on the fogs as my drl's. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) The DRL is supposed to turn off to make the signal light more visible. In the new cars, where the DRL is an LED near the signal light, the same thing happens. I doubt if there is a wire for the DRLs as they are controlled by a signal from the CanBus.

Steve_T Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 Why don't you just take out your high beam bulbs? That way you can run with just your parking lights and fogs on, and not worry about DRL's. (If you can live without high beams ofcousre). dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydtoosic Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) went to the dealer and was told that we have no DRL, also no code to activate them and the same with the AHL... told them i would buy the switch with the auto option and have them install and activate the AHL... was told i can only buy the switch aftermarket and that they would not be able to install and activate the AHL... are these people kidding... also told that doors could not be adjusted because they would be misaligned if they tried to adjust ... my temper will not allow BS, so i just left without another word spoken. will try another dealer. they are quick to take your money, however when you need help, they do not want to know or see you. funny how they make it seem like the problem you are having with your brand new car is your fault... time to put on my other face and put the nice guy face away... everytime i try and get out, they pull me back in...

dhh3 Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) You need the correct sensor + the switch for Auto Lights. And, auto lights has to be listed as a Sales Code, or NO dealer can activate them. I have the sensor and switch installed. I'm just waiting for the Sales Code to reappear on the Sales Code List, or whatever they call it. Edited March 27, 2016 by dhh3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanTacular Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Steve_T I would but I actually use my high beams a lot. There's tons of radar traps in and around Toronto and I always warn everyone approaching them with my high beams. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanTacular Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 It was a good one. If there weren't so many cops playing sniper with radar guns I totally would. Lol dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhh3 Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Journman425 works at a Chrysler Dealership. He will let us know when the Sales Code magically reappears as he did with the DRLs. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
